Sunset...

I'm so inspired (karmic word choice) by the "Inspired By Nature" stamp set... in part because the oversized florals lend themselves so well to variance in colour and technique. After spending a few minutes browsing around Split Coast Stampers I came across a beautiful card that gave me even further inspiration - and here's my resulting project:

I used a masking technique to leave the "sun" uninked while I sponged sunset colours around it in More Mustard, Really Rust and Close to Cocoa. The flowers are inked in Chocolate Chip, and I accented the greeting with brads from the Vintage collection. The card base is Really Rust, with Chocolate Chip and Barley Banana layers.

Big thanks to flatfish for the great design!
